Some people mentioned Smooth-On just came out with a finishing method for 3D printing parts, so I did some digging. 3Ders covered it here:

Here is the product page on Smooth-On's website:

Essentially it's a two-part epoxy that one brushes onto the surface of your part (TDS, MSDS) and it gives your part a high-gloss finish. You don't need to post-process the part once the epoxy is cured, but you can by sanding.
